Hi, A release candidate of Tails 0.12.1 has been made available for your testing pleasure from the following address:
http://dl.amnesia.boum.org/tails/testing/tails-i386-0.12.1-rc1/tails-i386-0.12.1-rc1.iso The signature can be found here: http://dl.amnesia.boum.org/tails/testing/tails-i386-0.12.1-rc1/tails-i386-0.12.1-rc1.iso.pgp This is a brown paper bag release [1] aimed at fixing two major problems introduced in Tails 0.12: * Tails 0.11 worked well on your hardware, but 0.12 resulted in a black screen during boot. Workarounds [2] could be applied to reach Tails Greeter from the black screen state. * Problems when setting locale (languge) and administrator password in Tails Greeter. We'd very much appreciate if those who experienced any of the two issues report back in this thread whether 0.12.1-rc1 fixes them. Everyone (including other Tails developers) are encouraged to test every other aspect of this release. In particular, tester may want to look at our manual test suite [3], which I'm planning to start to tackle top-to-bottom. Any other Tails developers that want to participate may hence want to start from the bottom or middle or something (please report here what you plan to do). The final release of Tails 0.12.1 is planned on Friday, so any test results and feedback should preferably be reported here before that. Cheers!
